1000 g, roasted

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Chopped fresh coriander and wholegrain bread (contains gluten). TIPS: Korma curry paste is a mild Indian-style curry paste. Find it in the Asian or Indian food section of most supermarkets. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Reheat soup in the microwave or in a saucepan on the stovetop, adding a little extra water if too thick. Add it: ¼ cup (60ml) light coconut milk to soup in Step 3. Swap it: Korma curry paste for Thai red curry paste.
